The mixtape is the first to be released by Nigerian based hiphop artist  "Th3 Ghost" under the fast rising label from the south 'Southern Heritage'. It was executively produced by Mecca Records. 
The structure and arrangement style of the materials is certainly ahead of its time in these parts. It starts off with a slow tempo which eases you into a diary with a timeline warped in melodic and daring instrumentals.

The progressive nature of the stories he told is another standout achievement, lemme clarify that statement. In Track 2 (Me and My Homie) the character shared blunt time with a friend  as they realised the need to make money and they dreamt about what to do with the money when it arrives...In Track 3 (My Cross) the character loses the money...leading to some self reflection while having some alone time with his blunt ala Track 4(Smoking Session).

The Mixtape embodies complex lyricicsm and story-telling at its best and features a wide array of ridiculously gifted underground mcs (YL, pRo, King Karnel, Tentik). It is a journey into the mind of one of the greats. It is a timeless piece.

When asked about the inspiration for the title, he simply said  'The moon is the 2nd brightest object in the sky, It is a source of light even though it produces none, it appears as a bright white light yet its surface is dark, I can relate to it, I can relate to nature cos it helped me find peace.'


Trees. Moon. Tranquility.

just as he entered hells kitchen 
the room froze
he stood like a tombstone 
looking gravely at the food smoke 
fumes rose from the cd plate into his nose
it made him need a taste
but he was fazed/phased
current mode...haywire
never has there ever been this much heat in hellfire
it almost got the chef fired
so he asked how it was made 

(chef..)
he tapped the heat of hate volcanoes
with a flame hose
same glow as the flaming table 
on which cain slayed abel
it was labelled with a warning ignored by sodom and Gomorrah
it opens the window of the soul of the beauty adorer
it can be hired as a sin (**hired assassin**)
to kill the good from within

his eyes made her cringe and he said 
'too much talk could make u die a log'

chef
but its true
he is deep
his depth goes far into the seas with the fairest princess of the Pharisees 
appearances differ from the mainstream
shit'll make u daydream

then he asked where it came from 

Chef
what if i tell you it fell from the steeple o' grace 
and the people that hate 
didnt hesitate to pick on a stray
with ink on a page, the colour of rage
an advice reads
'keep in a cage' 

then he asked, 'why is this important?'

chef..
he that plans to be the man
should be aware of the men
he should beware of
he's God's offspring 
and God sent the prophecy before him
he put it in the mind of einstein
e=mc2 
meaning he his twice the mc 
anyone will ever b

mike tyson freestyle...

the only place that i find comfort 
if u a doubter nigha come fort

but i dont bite 
am an original, i dont bite
that double entendre 
is triple homicide 
aint scared o' nothing 
cos i got my people by my side
we keep on...we keep on keeping on
call me king kong
chewing rappers like chewing gum
nothing's been done in the kingdom 
without the king knowing 
and when the king comes
the queen swallows
flying like a swallow
or a sparrow 
what do i know 
i'm just slurring my words
cos i don taken a lotta prescriptions
me and methamphetamine
thats the dopest that u ever see
aint no other rapper coming close to me
aint no other rapper saying shit 
that i be saying 
when i'm saying shit 
like an AK
wen u come out and start spraying shit
stray bullet hit a coward
onward to disaster
for that trophy
we gon bring catastrophe 
i'm in my zone right now
aint no modafkr coming close to me
aint nobdy tryna do what i do
aint nobody see what i see
but i keep pushing
word to stretcher but they push me 
and u know am from the jungle like mogli
and am so unholy
holy father forgive me i just killed another one 

Letter 2 Kendrick Lamar.
the ghost of our forefathers 
are sorry they coudnt protect your fathers 
from getting carted away in ships 
from the motherland to another land 
dont see me as another man
you're my brother mahn
u just leave in a foreign land 
i know that its ur current land 
after years of oppression
and suppression of oppression
and the promised reparations
now ur person is the president 
am proud of the people 
you've become 
but am stressing that 
you fighting a lost battle
like God's cattle tryna beef the devil's 
when its love that gets you to heaven 
911 happened 
at least you could call 911
but when the bomb blasts here

CRITICS
 Th3 Ghost ft Dan Kunnex, pRo, JWC

Th3 Ghost
Strange things happen 
when we start rapping 
then they start clapping 
then they start hating 
then they start yapping 
criticizing
to them
 you will never do the right thing 
they back-biting
 cos their writing lacks bite
so i bite back 
sprite's spiked,
 you know i like that 
addicted to the purple lean
God is my witness 
what an irony ? 
now the cure is my sickness 
building from the ground up
you know how the story go 
pray i dont lose my soul
not like alorhi jo
so on that hospital bed 
i fought tooth and nail
now am back to y'all 
i swear the doctor
 doesnt understand 
the man he cured (**manicured**)
they tryta fire at my back 
but it backfired 
like a coward's gun 
lemme show you how its done
cos i kill beats for a living 
the other day i saw 4 whores plus 4 men
hating on us cos we're the four horsemen
so fly we are air force men....

VERSE 1
it dont matter where u start
even the snail reached the ark
a wildfire was once a spark
once upon a time it was dark
"bark"
woof woof for my real dogs 
hope we pay the bills
 with the billboards
pray when i reach the top 
i dont free fall
sometimes it is death 
that i feel calling/phil collin 
in the air tonight 
i'm aware o' the mic 
i'm aware o' d fight
dark thoughts...
i'm aware o' d light
i try to be the best....yes
but they stress, 
that i try to be the rest
i'm tryna be the first of a kind 
unkind to the beat 
but kind to the streets
pepelean of the book of leaves 
take me away
God gave breath
but i'm tryna take it away..
.breathtaking

((Phil Collins:))
I've seen your face before, my friend
 but I dont know if you know who I am 

Verse 2
 hey yo ghost, u the man now 
 u did light us up, u they trend now 
 i hope u got dope songs to render 
me and mecca spinning cuts in the blender
u will remember the name when its december
so i better say my thanks now 
thanks for the downloads
thanks for the curvy round hoes
i never thought i'd find those
thanks for the new kicks 
thanks for teaching 
this old dog new tricks 
thanks for buying a few discs 
with bullshit ramblings of a madman
i never thought it'd happen but it happened 
thanks for clapping when i'm rapping 
thanks for showing up at events 
thanks for buying me a clean benz 
or maybe i shouldn't overstep 
the night isnt over yet

Phil Collins: But I was there and I saw what u did,
 I saw it with my own 2 eyes.....

VERSE 3
oh dear lord please hear my cry 
but it echoed
no one heard ghost
why is life a merry go ?
her little lamb's a black sheep now
here we go....
on this very note is my very soul

cos it makes me whole 
i hope it makes me blow
i set the bar then i'll trump it
then i'll raise it again
cos i aint to funk with
i'll end the fun quick like 
...who let the dogs out
woof woof woof 
the kush went swoosh 
now u see the proof 
but we dont see the roof 
we just top what we top
stop what we stop
drop what we drop
we never drop the plot 
we plot to drop 
all the heads on top
and u are right to think 
that we aint gone stop
that we aint gon flop
i give props to the cream of the crop
i hope their fans screams never stop
but i wanna be ur own rapper

Truth 
 Th3 Ghost ft pRo, Falsehood

(Th3 Ghost)
I'd look for someone 
who deserves me 
never again am I
 going thru this very horror
it makes me ashamed and sad
that i'm not 
being very thorough 
that am letting eve
 win the proverbial battle 
just for a bite of a rotten apple 
i'll accept and move on
its better for my mind
soul and my spirit 
it is not a gift 
if it brings grief 
reducing my self belief
 and increasing the beef 
there's a diff between
 numb and stiff
the earth shifts
 as the future pans out
even if a gal stands out
falling in love is a man down
another casualty 
my advice is..
treat ur official gal casually

(Hook)
to write is all i got left 
to write is all i got left 
my girlfriend left me
to write is all i got left 

((Falsehood))
this aint how its s'posed to be 
I love u 
u should be close to me **2

and the game is playing out on me 
and the pain is weighing down on me 
and if i had another chance 
i wouldn't take another glance at u

(Th3 Ghost)
she always says u're a playboy
even if u effing her alone (**hugh heffner**)
leave those kinda gals alone 
they would never trust u 
free them even if it costs u
listen wen i say this 
she shouldnt be 
current with ur savings 
i'm only saving u the heartbreak
 the day brings 
when we say things 
that we can never take back 
u dont care where i take rap 
ok...here's ur bag
i dont care where u take that
break this, break that
then we break up
the break down..
am offended that the love ended
i told u that i got u
but u don get me 
another casualty
treat ur official gals casually

Hook
to write is all i got left 
to write is all i got left 
my girlfriend left me
to write is all i got left 

((Falsehood))
this aint how its s'posed to be 
I love u u should be close to me **2

and the game is playing out on me 
and the pain is weighing down on me 
and if i had another chance 
i wouldn't take another glance at u

(pRo)
i see it in your eyes
 right behind your pretence
you fighting deep inside you
 why you sitting on a fence?
its got you looking indecisive
 baby girl no offence
your words betray ur actions 
it doesnt make sense
if im everything you need 
then why you wanna leave?
she says for the greater good
 youre better of on tv
it hurts when im all alone 
holding this remote
 tuning in to mtv
covered in your t shirt 
wishing you can see me(im right here)
saying i love you 
knowing well 
you wouldnt hear me
im hooked
 i dont need no one to tell me
keeping true emotions locked up
 is really deadly
i realised that 
cos i know you got dreams
dont worry i'll manage 
as long as ive got screens
im like this connection 
is nothing about screens
and your reason for leaving
 is nothing about dreams
no matter where i go 
im intwined with the lust
that i quote with love 
and policies of trust
like O2 girl your love is life
how the hell am i to
 choose between u and this life
so i guess
 to write is all ive got left(repeat 3x)
before i kick the stool and hang till my last breath.

BALANCE 
 Th3 Ghost

its history nigha....

VERSE 1
I knew this rap shit 
way back when i was 12
i swear rapping back then was swell
had dreams of being top-sell 
but the songs that i wrote back then 
still sit on my top shelf 
and i....
gave up on chasing dreams as i chased cream
to be fair...the street aint what it seems
lips sealed..i let my heart do the talking
lips sealed..i let y'all do the sucking
did more than run the streets 
i 'forest gumped' it
they say i brag a lot 
yet i aint known to the public
i say its just me u either hate or u love it
cos when it all ends 
...even God blows his trumpet
i don learned a thing or 2 
and i aint having the success pie
without God's hand in it 
call it finger food
the light at the end of the tunnel is a beam
so fuck freddy Kruger
i'm living the dream
cant lose my balance 

HOOK
cant be losing balance **
i wont slip 
i wont fall
although the storm is strong 
i'll hold on
cant be losing my balance 

VERSE 2
show me the john
am 'bout to terminate this shit 
big time
ama go to every corner/conner screaming 'it is time'(**Terminator..John Conner, It is Time**)
welcome to the show 
this G be the Host 
better delivery than the post
only other delivery i respect the most
...the day that mama delivered the ghost
u live and u learn 
i came into this world on a rainy day
know wonder i flow so
walk in my shoes u will get ur feet burned 
dont u know so
been doing this just to grow, so ama stay planted 
but dont feed me shit 
all i need is the limelight to spit
when the time's right 
i'd sit......on my throne
Ferrari testarosa should be taking me home 
no Sister Rosa (Rosa Parks) 
just a cute gal at the back of a boss/bus
cos i cant be losing my balance 

VERSE 3
oh u a star now u a lot more famous 
but my shit runs the planets 
fuck whats coming out ur anus/uranus
thats the result of my mind read 
wishing i'm smoking hot
are these pipe dreams ?
hitting that night train 
as our mates drive the range rover
living like a monkey
everyday hangover 
stopped smoking to please a gal who's breathtaking
rumors made u question decisions that u making
u weren't too sure if she had the same affection
would ur heart pop if u face one direction
now u wake up questioning ur own reflection
i guess..u were just scared of perfection
but thru the storm..thru the fair weather
hustle till u boxed up like u fought mayweather 
until ur garage becomes a slave ship
....damn, now thats a lotta whips 

HOOK
cant be losing balance **
i wont sleep 
i wont fall
although the storm is strong 
i'll hold on
cant be losing my balance

a hidden treasure
rapping for leisure near the river

seven sins away from heaven's dream
and i'm wondering...huhn

HOLY MATRIMONEY
 Th3 Ghost

dont look at me that way
like you know how its going to end..
cos am........too tired to be honest

VERSE 1
i hope me and money be in holy matrimony
and on our moneymoon
we will have fun 
if we have a son/sun 
he will light up the world 
if we have a girl 
she will be mother earth
and her worth?
worthless to the earthlings 
who dont know the worthy 
but the worldly 
they dont want the spiritual
with his biblical, metaphysical lyricals
they just wanna get physical 
with some pretty hoes..in the city yo
this is so vivid tho...but they too blind to see the video
of what they becoming or where they going 
in that Boeing like that mh370
ama stay outta sight till i'm outta my mind 
in hindsight out of sight is out of mind right?
am i outta my......mind?

HOOK
lets make........
lets make.......
lets make love on a million
in a dirty hotel 
with the fan on the ceiling

VERSE 2
i hope me and money be in holy matrimony 
and on our moneymoon
we will have fun 
we will buy time
so we can stop time 
and make the pain go away ontime 
break the hour glass 'fore the hour pass
anytime is our last 
search for paradise often make us exhibit 
our own cowardice 
our lies cloud our judgment 
every minute we're second but we came first 
every man wanna be the greatest
lets all have a street carnival
with the cannibals smoking cannabis
bumping canibus 
and i want us at this juncture to state that 
cultism is actually a prison
free your mind before the bullets make departments in ur thinking faculty

that is if u asking me....

HOOK
lets make.......
lets make.......
lets make love on a million
in a dirty hotel

DEADLY SINS

my soul yearns for the life of a star
my soul yearns what the billionaires earn 
I aint greedy I just want the best and more
the game needs me yet i cant be rest assured
thats cos i wanna live large 
fuck tryna make a living
thats cos i wanna live large 
fuck tryna make a living 

(King Karnel)
Turn a light beam on a dream
I hope to tell a vision
and here's a picture for the screen 
I don seen 'bout a couple things 
that we've been in
we still in cos we will win
am far from a slip/sleep but i will dream
I came closer to my dreams when i didnt sleep/slip
we break laws and drop bars 
while they trip became far
and we became stars
just read my stars if u a wise man
u could take advice or u could take a ride with the bridesmen
where is ur pride mehn ?
did u watch it go ?
how could u watch it leave ?
shit is hard enough for me to believe that it came from a leaf
fuck it.....
all o' this inspiration
good enough for a whole nation
roll on and be sure
that before you take a stand mehn
...you will crawl

pRo (Hook)

fuck tryna make a living 

(Th3 Ghost)
to me its 6 deadly sins 
cos i agree with greed
i've got gratitude..
its just that i see the need to plant seeds and harvest more than i dreamed 
if money is the root of all evil its my favourite gin
is it a sin if i always want to win 
sorry if i'm raw but my dick's the only reason i am looking for a draw 
you will look forever if u looking for a flaw
came through the window while u looking for a door
i let opportunity knock as a distraction
me and my faction 
came for your subtraction
money over bitches is the fraction
add some commitment and passion
but show no compassion
i need more chillings 
wanna get loose with my winnings 
and not give a fuck what am spending 
unless its time 
and even if i left the line
ama be next in line 
u can have yours 
but the rest is mine 

pRo (Hook)

I'm a bonafide soldier 
i dont run i fight till it is over 
after so long i finally took over
yeah....would u please tell me this 
its ironic how everybody wants an 'outcast' 
when its what they labelled me in my past 
my soul is on fire 
and my heart has gone cold 
made a promise that i must uphold 
or risk really hard times 
the prophecy was foretold 
like visions i could not withold 
my storie's making history
my soul will not be sold 
instead in every given time i'll be whats in vogue 
like custom made seats in the new double R (range rover)
i want more even if i make a milli for a bar
i aim for the top and learned to shoot it from afar
pR... am the rap's Dr.

TRAGEDY
 Th3 Ghost, YL

Th3 Ghost
huh....when do i start
unleash me....

mama packed his food stuff
u knw.. the good stuff
rice, beans, garri and a few pots
'u going to another town 
make sure u hold it down before u end up in a hole in the ground'
those were the words but his mind drifted 
he didnt hear em
he wasnt yearning for higher learning
just the freedom he was earning
he's still a virgin 
he's been thinking 'bout them girls 
and he's been prepraring 
the only that concerns him huh
he already lost his bearing 'fore the journey started 
he hugs his mama at the park and 
her tears started as the car departed 
partly cos someone u're a part of 
is hard to part with
huh
such a fucking tragedy.....x2
YL

YL 
yeah ok...such a fucking tragedy.....damn
look.....mama i made it
i just stepped foot in a foreign land
and truth be told it was more enhanced 
than what i pictured 
and also the description i got
i couldnt tell if it was fiction or not
all i knw is that the mixture was hot
cold weather pretty gals with more cheddar than most fellas 
and they all smokin pot
heard its a must 
mehn am just hoping its not 
my brain cells/sells i dont want it to rot
i'm tryna migrate from the migraine
but i dont want it to stop
admittedly i am one with the plot
feels like i work in a block
they pay attention by the mention of my name in the streets
i saw fame in this shit
so i'm banging them chicks
unanimous shit
it aint my fault 
tho i fought with my conscience and won
thats why i went from being cautious to fun
feeling very heartless, 
partly cos something you're a part of is hard to part with

Th3 Ghost
the first part was how a mother lost her son
the 2nd part is how the son lost his heart 
the 3rd part...his heart went dark
goddamn the word is full of hurt...

every second spent u're tryna prove ursef
thinking 8mile is too short for u to lose yourself 
until u lose ur belt and then u scream
'fuck the world'
cos u thought life was a box of pearls 
u king of the underworld
now u feeling like an OCTOpus
cats with the 9 get like ten tackles(tentacles)
cos there's no way u letting shit slide
u're deebo every other day except friday
cos thats when u hit the club
looking for a chick to rob
but u fell for this one 
so u tried to pick her up
and have at her
and she dodging like a matador
now u mad at her .......for not offering
but she aint a whore 
she's just an orphan who often comes here cos its awful to be alone 
and she is single
but u were seeing double
the alcohol was making u wobble
u looking for trouble 
so u call ur boy with ur toy 
and u whistle till he comes near 
whisper in his dumb ear 
bring the gun here
and then u shoot her and u run scared
aint no fun there.....
huh

its such a fucking tragedy.
youths these days wasting their lives
such a fucking tragedy......

SMOKING SESSION

VERSE 1
sometimes i'm scared
i wonder if the future's bright
or is the light at the end of the tunnel
controlled by my govt
is it off very often?
reason for my many stumbles
i'm just a bystander watching the royals rumble
but y grumble
there's enough room in the jungle
for the lions and the snakes and the tigers and hyenas and the vultures
but no room for the pigs
i thought about that as i puff a big
am talking jumbo
just incase u dont knw
i've had enough of cigs so i quit
but the blunts stay lit
cos lets face it
without scales the problem would way me down 

amazing now i'm 'bout to turn my life around
i'm dancing with the stars
am walking with the moon
i'm burning with the sun
i'm digging mother earth
but i disappear with a black hoe(black hole)

CHORUS
Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And the worst part is there's no one else to blame
Be my friend, hold me
Wrap me up, unfold me
I am small, and needy
Warm me up and breathe me

VERSE 2
Jehovah is my witness
i will stay awake in my watch tower
and slay devils
always stoned like it rains pebbles
always on another level
like 'the princess is not in this castle'
perhaps so
let it all go but grasp hope
remember that quote
more important than ur last dope
and the fact goes..
u cant cope if u lack growth
no place for complacency
wen u chasing dreams
i knw my place and there's no replacing me
i'm just a lonely man
and i'm the only man to blame 
afraid of being tamed
running wild like its a game 
look now wat became
as soon as the fun stops
i become a monster

amazing now i'm 'bout to go and turn my life around
i'm dancing with the stars
am walking with the moon
i'm burning with the sun
i'm digging mother earth
but i disappear with a black hoe(black hole)

CHORUS
Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And the worst part is there's no one else to blame
Be my friend, hold me
Wrap me up, unfold me
I am small, and needy
Warm me up and breathe me
